Join our Yahoo Group Click Here to get started: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/VMLG
This group is specifically for discussion to assist professionals who manage volunteer programs in local government (city, county, state and federal). The challenges and issues for volunteerism in municipalities and government may differ substantially from those in “traditional” non-profit-based volunteer programs. Volunteer programs in this yahoo group could help those in parks and recreation, library system, human services, criminal justice system, city hall, human resources, military, school district, etc. Please feel free to join our group to read about and brainstorm the issues and challenges our volunteer leadership is tackling nationwide in government programs.
Founded in 1997, NAVPLG
is an international association of administrators for volunteer programs in local, city, and county
government.
What members say:
"As a long-term member I appreciate knowing that I can communicate with
NAVPLG members by email or phone and that gives me a support system
throughout the year. I
share strategies, new program ideas and of course concerns and problems
that are unique to government programs. Don't let distance get in your
way of this great resource."
